"Fine, Moreno it is. Let them test me, Danielle said coolly. Since Audrey was asking for it, she’d show her what she was really capable of Rising gracefully, Danielle gathered her things. "I have somewhere to be. Excuse me."
"Ivan, show her to the garage. She can take any car she likes, Howard said.
The offer delighted Danielle, who wasn’t fond of being chauffeured anyway. Getting rideshares up to the Treeside Villa was always a hassle.
In the garage, Danielle surveyed dozens of luxury vehicles, each worth millions. She selected a Ferrari, slid behind the wheel, and shot out of the garage with expert precision.
Her coffee-drinking family watched from the terrace, startled by her speed. "Wait. Does she even have a license?" Howard frantically dialed her number.
"Danielle, I forgot to ask-do you have a driver’s license?" he asked anxiously.
